Dhruvil Shah reassigned KAFKA-12520:
------------------------------------
Assignee: Dhruvil Shah
> Producer state is needlessly rebuilt on startup
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-12520
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-12520
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Dhruvil Shah
> Assignee: Dhruvil Shah
> Priority: Major
>
> When we find a {{.swap}} file on startup, we typically want to rename and
> replace it as {{.log}}, {{.index}}, {{.timeindex}}, etc. as a way to complete
> any ongoing replace operations. These swap files are usually known to have
> been flushed to disk before the replace operation begins.
> One flaw in the current logic is that when we recover these swap files on
> startup, we end up truncating the producer state and rebuild it from scratch.
> This is unneeded as the replace operation does not mutate the producer state
> by itself. It is only meant to replace the {{.log}} file along with
> corresponding indices.
> Because of this unneeded producer state rebuild operation, we have seen
> multi-hour startup times for clusters that have large compacted topics.
